Bangladesh Customs is now on the hunt for the individual responsible for the smuggling of 12.3 kg of gold bars found stashed in the toilet of a plane that took off from Abu Dhabi.
Authorities, with the help of National Security Intelligence (NSI), recovered a total of 100 gold bars from an aircraft of Biman Bangladesh Airlines on March 11.
No one has claimed the gold bars, according to The Daily Star.

The plane was reported to have made a brief stopover in Chittagong, Bangladesh.
